Franklin County Fire and EMS Stations

These should have been easy enough, except maybe the fourth one. I didn't even know about this one before Sunday. Here we go with the answers...

First station... This is the Sudie Clayton Memorial Fire Hall, home of the Mechanics Steam Fire Engine and Hose Company, part of the Waynesboro Fire Department, Franklin County Company 2. Sitting at 10 Virgina Avenue just off of Main Street, near the hospital. Besides the Brush and Utility they have two engines running out of the back of this station. The station was donated to the Mechanics by Sudie Clayton Weaver and her husband Howard in the late 1960's.

Second station... Marion Volunteer Fire Company, Company 8. Founded in 1944 they moved into this new station in 1999 or 2000. Before that... see Fourth station.

Third station... This is Chambersburg Fire Department's McKinley Street Station. 261 McKinley Street, Chambersburg. Also home of the Friendship Engine and Hose Company No. 1, founded in 1780, and housing Engine Tanker 14 in this station. Also home of the Good Will Fire Company No. 3. Also home to Chambersburg Fire Department Engine 1-1 and Engine 1-3 and Fire Police 1. Friendships old fire station can be seen here. Good Will's old house is no longer with us. This station was built around 1976. (ps: from this mornings comments I found out that ET-14 is no longer housed at this station)

Fourth station... This one is one I didn't know about until I talked with the guys at the Marion fire station Sunday morning. I knew of the prior station that set across the street. We sat standby for them years ago and caught a run out of the old station (Last picture above and previously blogged about here). They told me of the original station that was this old garage, now furniture refinisher. They told me they ran out of the back of this building. I assume it would be the door with the red bumper posts. They were here from 1950 until moving in 1953.
